Quinoa and Fig Breakfast Porridge

1/8 cup quinoa

1/8 cup split red lentils

heaped tsp of fig paste*

30g almond meal (I grind up unsalted raw almonds myself)

1T ground chia seeds or linseeds

fruit finely diced (eg apricots, bananas, berries)


cook quinoa, lentils and fig paste in 1 Cup of water. Stirring frequently.

Mix through fruit and nuts and seeds. Can be blended for younger babies.

Optional: mix in some coconut milk

* I like to make a container of my own fig paste which is a fig and date blend. Simply get dried mission figs and dried ordinary figs with a few seeded medjool dates and blend into a paste.
